DISCOVER ONE OF CAYMAN’S AMAZING TREASURES

div-3

Strange as it may seem, there is really a place called “Hell” in Cayman’s paradise.

Located in the district of West Bay on Grand Cayman, Hell is a unique natural wonder of rugged blackened limestone outcropping. The jagged formations are a result of millions of years of geological evolution, due to acid rain and consumption of the rock by carbonate-loving organisms. This erosion has left an eerie and desolate looking landscape earning this location its highly appropriate name. The rocks are estimated to be 10 to 15 million years old.

Visitors have been flocking here for decades, for bragging rights that they have “been to Hell and back” or have simply taken someone’s advice to “go to Hell!”

Naturally, the ‘Devil’ roams at Hell and no visit is complete without a photo taken with him, you may also catch a glimpse of an “Angel” while on site.

A postcard dispatched from Hell Post Office is also a good way to share a memorable visit to this site.

Hell is located on lands owned by the Cayman Islands Government, as well as on adjoining areas, which are privately owned and offers a similar experience.

Then off to visit Hell and send a few post cards back home from Hell. Stopped off at the Turtle sanctuary, for a look at their habitat. Last but not least took a short stop at 7 mile beach and wow what a sight!

The main... read more thing to see is a lava field with unusual formations. There's a cut out of the devil and you can take photos.

Our Driver was Jaime... read more and he was very entertaining telling us much about the grand Caymans as we went through the town. I personally enjoyed visiting hell it was fun experience and a chance to say we had been there. We got our passport stamped. Got a few postcards and some shirts and visited the rock formations we even took pictures. w did get delayed in Hell for while as one of the people on our tour went missing. Turns out she got on the wrong bus as there were three in our tour going the same places. But our tour guide and the people who own the shop were very attentive and helpful in trying to find her and doing everything they could to help.

    star rating  I was a little disappointed as the pics are great. However, it's really a small market, but the locals who are there are very friendly and great to chat... read more with. I expected more handmade stuff, but not as much as I thought. I did buy some prints. I hate when you see the original artwork but then are sold a print. I went ahead and bought some, but would rather have originals. You might find a cheap shirt or bracelet. If room allows the there's a lady who handweaves baskets and purses. I didnt have room as I'm doing a carry on only, but she's worth a look at. It sits on the corner across from the water down past Kirk Freeport and Atlantis office. It's just one big tent with about 12-15 vendors. Maybe it's bigger during high season? IDK. Anyway if time permits go there. If not the shopping boutiques in the port area aren't badly priced anyway.
